Transforming future US Army leaders

This week on Weapons & Warfare host Ryan Robertson takes a deep dive into the Cadet Leadership Development Course (CLDT) at West Point. We’ll hear firsthand from cadets who have successfully completed this rigorous program, exploring how it shapes their journey as they prepare to graduate and become commissioned officers in the U.S. Army. Learn about the challenges they face, the skills they acquire, and the impact of this transformative experience on their leadership development. And in our Weapon of the Week we explore the U-Force military training system, a cutting-edge platform designed to enhance the proficiency of soldiers. The system includes an advanced simulator for the iconic Browning M2 heavy machine gun, allowing troops to practice their skills in a realistic yet safe environment.
